<p>A House Republican is moving to censure Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) for &#8220;disgraceful and vile attacks&#8221; on Texas Governor Greg Abbott.</p>
<p>Rep. Randy Weber (R-TX) announced on Tuesday that he intended to introduce such a measure after Crockett <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/governor-hot-wheels-jasmine-crockett-mocks-greg-abbotts-disability" target="_blank" rel="noopener">taunted</a> Abbott as &#8220;Governor Hot Wheels.&#8221; Abbott, a Republican, is permanently paralyzed from the waist down and uses a wheelchair.</p>
<p>&#8220;I plan to introduce a bill to censure Jasmine Crockett for her disgraceful and vile attacks against our Governor of Texas,&#8221; Weber <a href="https://x.com/TXRandy14/status/1904604098059461036" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in a post on X. &#8220;This kind of rhetoric has no place in Congress.&#8221;</p>
<p>Weber was responding to a report from Fox News on his plans. Liz Elkind, a reporter for the outlet, also <a href="https://x.com/liz_elkind/status/1904602256538042701" target="_blank" rel="noopener">shared</a> a copy of the congressman&#8217;s draft resolution.</p>
<p>It noted that Crockett &#8220;spoke at a Human Rights Campaign event in a manner unbecoming of a Member of Congress, calling the Governor of Texas, Greg Abbott, &#8216;Governor Hot Wheels,&#8217; and a &#8216;hot a** mess'&#8221; on March 22.</p>
<p>Should Weber offer his censure resolution as privileged, House leadership would have two legislative days to take action on it.</p>
<p>The remarks from Crockett drew a wave of condemnation from Republicans and their allies.</p>
<p>&#8220;Jasmine Crockett is despicable,&#8221; Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton <a href="https://x.com/KenPaxtonTX/status/1904577254274842918" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> on X.</p>
<p>In a <a href="https://x.com/RepJasmine/status/1904620525457994147" target="_blank" rel="noopener">thread</a> posted on X, Crockett claimed she &#8220;wasn’t thinking about the governor’s condition,&#8221; but rather Abbott transporting migrants to &#8220;communities led by Black mayors.&#8221; The Democrat further insisted that she did not &#8220;mention or allude to his condition&#8221; and called the controversy &#8220;another distraction.&#8221;</p>
<p>Weber&#8217;s draft resolution had more to say.</p>
<p>It stated that Crockett&#8217;s remarks were not just &#8220;discriminatory in nature&#8221; but also &#8220;the latest in a continued series of inappropriate comments.&#8221;</p>
<p>As an example, the measure cited a House Committee on Oversight and Investigations hearing on May 16, 2024, when Crockett &#8220;espoused inflammatory comments about the appearance of another Member of Congress.&#8221;</p>
<p>During a <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/17/us/politics/marjorie-taylor-greene-insults-crockett.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">tense session</a> on that date, Crockett flung a &#8220;bleach blonde, bad built, butch body&#8221; insult at Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA). That was after Greene took a shot at Crockett, saying, &#8220;I think your fake eyelashes are messing up what you’re reading.&#8221;</p>
<p>Over the course of United States history, <a href="https://history.house.gov/Institution/Discipline/Expulsion-Censure-Reprimand/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">28 House lawmakers</a> have faced a censure — a formal rebuke that is a less severe form of punishment than expulsion.</p>
<p>In recent years, the House has censured Republican member Paul Gosar and Democrat representatives Adam Schiff, Rashida Tlaib, and Jamaal Bowman. Earlier this month, 10 Democrats joined with 214 Republicans in voting to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/10-dems-join-gop-to-censure-rep-al-green-for-heckling-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pass</a> a censure resolution against Rep. Al Green (D-TX) for his outburst during President Donald Trump&#8217;s address to a joint session of Congress.</p>
